The principle of redundancy is used when system reliability is improved through redundant or backup components. Assume that a student's alarm clock has a 7.67.6% daily failure rate. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a. What is the probability that the student's alarm clock will not work on the morning of an important final exam? (Round to three decimal places as needed.) b. If the student has two such alarm clocks, what is the probability that they both fail on the morning of an important final exam? (Round to five decimal places as needed.) c. What is the probability of not being awakened if the student uses three independent alarm clocks? (Round to five decimal places as needed.) d. Do the second and third alarm clocks result in greatly improved reliability? A. Yes, because total malfunction would not be impossible, but it would be unlikely. B. No, because total malfunction would still not be unlikely. C. No, because the…

The principle of redundancy is used when system reliability is improved through redundant or backup components. Assume that a student's alarm clock has a 5.6% daily failure rate. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a. What is the probability that the student's alarm clock will not work on the morning of an important final exam? b. If the student has two such alarm clocks, what is the probability that they both fail on the morning of an important final exam? c. What is the probability of not being awakened if the student uses three independent alarm clocks? d. Do the second and third alarm clocks result in greatly improved reliability? A. No, because the malfunction of both is equally or more likely than the malfunction of one. B. No, because total malfunction would still not be unlikely. C. Yes, because total malfunction would not be impossible, but it would be unlikely. D. Yes, because you can always be certain that at…
Suppose that 20.56% of all vehicles on the road get a fuel economy of at least 35 miles per gallon (MPG).

The cost of an automobile insurance policy depends on many factors, including marital status, where you live, credit score, age of the car, and driving history. Suppose that for some driver category, the probability distribution for the random variable Y, the amount (in dollars) of a collision deductible on a random automobile policy, is given in the table. 100 200 500 1000 p(y) 0.05 0.11 0.21 0.25 0.38 Suppose two policies are selected at random. What is the probability that at least one has a collision deductible of $500 or less? (Use decimal notation. Give your answer as an exact number.) probability:
On average dog bite victims arrive at Carver Memorial Hospital at a rate of 2 victims per day. Which probability distribution is most nearly appropriate to describe the number of dog bite victims who arrive at this hospital on a given day?
In a certain year, the probability that a stock was in the Information Technology sector was 0.1353. The probability that the stock had a dividend yield of 2.00% or higher given that it was in the Information Technology sector was 0.2988. The probability that a stock had a dividend yield of 2.00% or higher given that it was not in the Information Technology sector was 0.4469. Find the probability that the stock was in the Information Technology sector given that it had a dividend yield of 2.00% or higher. Let F be the event that a stock was in the Information Technology sector and E be the event that a stock had a dividend yield of 2.00% or higher. P(F)= and P P (F') =
Virtually any process can be improved by use of statistics, including the law. A much publicized case that involved a debate about probability was the Collins case, which began in 1964. An incident of purse snatching in the Los Angeles area led to the arrest of Michael and Janet Collins. At their trial, an "expert" presented the probabilities listed in table below on characteristics possessed by a couple seen running from the crime scene: Characteristics Probability Man with beard 1/10 Blond woman 1/4 1/10 Yellow car Woman with ponytail Man with moustache Interracial couple 1/10 1/3 1/1000 The chance that a couple had all these characteristics together is 1 in 12 million. Because the Collinses had these characteristics, the Collinses must be guilty. Do yo see any problem with this line of reasoning? Hint: The question of interest is not "what is the probability of finding a couple with these characteristics?" because one such couple has been found (the Collinses), the question is "what…
There is a 0.9985 probability that a randomly selected 30-year-old male lives through the year. A life insurance company charges $191 for insuring that the male will live through the year. If the male does not survive the year, the policy pays out $120,000 as a death benefit. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.
